I have a close and personal relationships with all my buddies. Mouse is my age. He's the captain of the wrestling team and he can tie knots like nobody's business. Snake is strong with a heart of gold. You don't want to get on his bad side though. It's scary to get on his bad side. Moose helped me get my confidence when it comes to girls.
I loved school. Lunch was my favorite subject followed by free period. I hated science and math. I loved English and History. I had no idea that soon a lesson I learned in science would play a pivotal role in my life. We were learning about pullys at the time. A pully is a machine that you can use to get leverage and manipulate something heavy so it gets easier to pull.
It started in the winter. It was a cold day but I was really excited. I had gotten 100 on my English test. I had won the debate in class. I had gotten the lead in the school play. I confess. I'm sort of a theater geek and proud of it too.
I went into my dad's office to give him a hug and tell him about my dad. I did that every day. No matter what he was doing he always took a couple of minutes to talk to me about my day. We were also going on a field trip to the theater. It was for history. We were studying the French Revolution. Tale of Two Cities was playing in the afternoon and then there was an early evening showing of Les Miserables.
I told dad all about my day.
"Proud of you Con," he told me, "How are you doing in science."
I sighed.
"Fine," I said, "But it's stupid."
"Science isn't stupid," Mike said, "I like it."
"Good for you," I said, "But what does science have to do with real life."
"Well science is the body that houses the soul," Dad pointed out.
